Of possible interest to York and Simcoe region birders in particular: I observed a flock of 24 Wild Turkeys in the farm fields on the east side of the Simcoe County Forest north of Bradford this afternoon while walking my dog. The birds were foraging in the field when an ATV startled them and they all flew northward into the woods. An impressive sight, 24 Wild Turkeys flying past you!
This field is on the 11th line, between Hwy. 400 and 10th Sideroad. It can be accessed by turning east from Hwy. 400 onto Hwy. 88, heading toward Bradford. !0th Sideroad runs north from 88. Take 11th Line back toward Hwy. 400 (west). The forest is directly across from Ray Magani Park. Ron Fleming, Newmarket "Ronald J.
